Correct Answer: 5
Solution : Given: 12 : 132 :: 8 : 56 :: ? : 20
Subtract 1 from the first number, and then multiply the resultant with the first number, to get the second number in each number pair – Like, 12 : 132→12 × (12 – 1) = 12 × 11 = 132 And, 8 : 56→8 × (8 – 1) = 8 × 7 = 56 Similarly, follow the same pattern for ? : 20→ ⇒ a × (a – 1) = 20 ⇒ a 2 – a = 20 ⇒ a 2 – a – 20 = 0 ⇒ a = 5 and a = –4
So, 5 is the required missing number. Hence, the first option is correct.
